Dhaka.jpg

Dhaka. This was taken shortly after a monsoon thunderstorm, so the traffic hasn't yet built up to its usual impenetrable levels. http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=2740669

Chittagong.jpg

The railway station at Chittagong. Note the military trucks in the background - there was a fair bit of political touble in the country while I was there. http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=2740669

Cox's Bazaar.jpg

Cox's Bazaar. This is Bangladesh's equivalent of Goa. Not that you'd be any wiser of this fact from this photo. http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=2740669

Buddhist temple.jpg

Buddhist temple at Cox's Bazaar. This is the part of Bangladesh that starts verging onto Myanmar, and the change in atmosphere is descernible. http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=2740669

Teknaf.jpg

Boats at dock, Teknaf. That thin strip of water you see is the dividing line between Bangladesh and Myanmar. http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=2740669

Sunset, St Martin's Island.jpg

Sunset, St Martin's Island. It's a small, coral island situated off the tip of Bangladesh. Genuinely deserving of the term paradise - no traffic, no theft, and lacking the worst extremes of poverty as well. http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=2740669

Approaching thunderstorm.jpg

Situated where it is, St Martin's sees quite a few tropical thunderstorms. They're announced by a thick gathering of cloud and hot, rising winds. http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=2740669

St Martin's Isalnd.jpg

St Martin's again. And no, I didn't use a colour filter. It genuinely does turn this shade towards the evening. http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=2740669

More floods.jpg

Normally, these fields should be green with crops at the time of year that this photo was taken. Instead, the owners have improvised and have set up a fishing rig. http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=2740669

Jaflang. This is about as far as you can go on the Bangladesh border without crossing over into India. http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=2740669
